DIY Photography– Depending on the nature of your proposal, using your camera phone as a decoy can be a great way to capture the moment. When you arrive at your proposal destination tell your future fiance that you want to take a picture. You can then set up a self timer to capture every moment from dropping to your knee to slipping the ring on their finger. If you choose to go the camera phone route we recommend that you do a few trial runs before the big day.
